[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
But it's technically possible and permitted, so you could create one. If there are no such apps so far, then apparently people don't need it.

Of course it's possible, but it doesn't make much sense for most types of data. This solution is good if you want to store your private data somewhere online and don't give it to anybody. But that's not the case for contacts and calendar: most people want to have contacts synchronized between Gmail, GTalk and other services, so Google must have access to contacts data. Same for calendar: it's accessible through WWW interface and many other tools.

And same as above: anybody could create contacts syncing app at any time. Why to blame Google that no one created one so far? If you think people really need it, then write it and make money from it.

Yeah, that would be great addition to Android. I think you're right: they haven't add it just because they have other things to do.

Blackberry is targeted at business, so it has different priorities. Typical Android user doesn't need encryption, actually... I think he prefer to use unencrypted data. Encryption has its drawbacks: performance cost, risk of data loss if you forget your password, also encrypted data is much more vulnerable to corruption.

It's logical Google doesn't work on a feature, that would be used by 5% of users. Especially if most of people who need encryption use RIM's phones already and they won't switch to Android anyway.

And did you? I have never seen such an app using real-time data.

But of course it's possible. All your examples: "mash ups", 3D modelling from 2D images, face recognition, etc. are just trivial - they aren't some mysterious projects, but XXI century technologies, so I think most of people using computers and internet know about them already. Your words are something like: "Do you know anyone could shot a photo of you and look at it in his home?!". Why to talk about such obvious things?

Did you heard about Hawk-Eye? As I said your "did you know"s are trivial, Hawk-Eye was designed 9 years ago and it's used in all tournaments, people talk about it in TV. It's neither new nor magic thing, it's obvious.

Yea, people want 0.2MP cameras in their phones, but these bad asses manufactures give them 5MP!

Do you know, what are all these above things? They're called "features". Manufacturers add them, cause people want them and they will pay for. You could not like them, but what is the sense in WTFing and whying? Just don't use these features - disable them or buy other products. This is soo simple.

Yeah, I agree. But most of the time that are "anti-government people" who insult others. Actually... read your own post: "ALLO, wake up", "wake up (...) and change" and "it's the ignorance itself". You think your point of view is absolutely better than other's and you are talking about the freedom of thought in the same time?

document = educate? I think it's hard to use internet and don't educate about such things, cause people talk about them everywhere ;-) But still these aren't facts, but opinions. The fact is that e.g. governments and corporations work on ACTA. But thinking about it as something evil, as something to "take over internet, freedom of speech" is just an opinion, not fact. And you are about freedom of thought, right? :-)

No, it isn't:

Many people are very suspicious about Google already.

Google has many services related to various parts of life: communicating with others, travelling, investing on market, purchasing things on the internet, etc.

Facebook is used for entertainment mostly, Google for productive and other purposes.

Google is quite obligatory in the internet, so you have less control over data given to them. If you don't want to put some data about you to Facebook... just don't do that. But it's hard to search for porn and don't let Google know about it.

And even if they would be the same. Maybe people don't quit, because they just don't think Facebook MIGHT sell their data as you think?

And small combo at the end :-) :

So what they do? :-)

[citation/doc/proof needed]

What informations?

Ignorance to what? What if someone has knowledge, so he isn't an ignorant, but he just has different point of view?
